A Taste of Tina: Lame Lemonade Cake

Hi and thank you for visiting my blog. My name is Tina, I am 39 years old and married to a wonderful man named Robert. I live in the Cleveland, Ohio area with my husband and our three pugs, Suki, Koko and Lucy and two kitties, Max and Trixie.

I am of Italian decent and love to cook not just for my family but for everyone! I have a lot of weeknight dinner guest and try to keep it casual but delicious! My Mom passed away a few years ago and was my great teacher. Keeping the family recipes in tact and in rotation help me feel closer to her and like I am honoring her memory.

I do cook a little healthier than my Mom did and do a lot more vegetarian meals, ground turkey and chicken. I hope you enjoy my blog and my recipes.

Lame Lemonade Cake

I love lemon cake. Every year for my birthday I ask for a lemon coconut cake and Aunt Judy always makes me a delicious one! I am trying to clear out the pantry and get rid of all processed food items and I came across a lemon box cake mix. I went on AllRecipes and looked for a recipe that would use this Lemon cake mix. I found Lemonade Cake III that look really easy and good. Honestly, I haven't used a box cake mix in awhile preferring from scratch cakes, but I don't know if we are now just cake snobs, but this cake was just not up to our standard. It was okay...but I wouldn't make it again. While it wasn't the best tasting cake..it looks pretty though.
